Question

Raymond just got done jumping at Super Bounce Trampoline Center. The total cost of his session was \$43.25$43.25dollar sign, 43, point, 25. He had to pay a \$7$7dollar sign, 7 entrance fee and \$1.25$1.25dollar sign, 1, point, 25 for every minute he was on the trampoline. Write an equation to determine the number of minutes (t)(t)left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis that Raymond was on the trampoline.

Answer 1

Answer:M=29

subtract 43.25 by 7 because it's a one time fee. But the 1.25 is for each minute so you subtract by 7 and you get 36.25. once you have 36.25 you divide it by 1.25. You should then get 29 mins.

Answer 2

7 + 1.25t = 43.25 <== ur equation
1.25t = 43.25 - 7
1.25t = 36.25
t = 36.25 / 1.25
t = 29 <== he was jumping for 29 minutes
